Every day hundreds of new apps make their debut on the App Store, and hundreds more are updated or reduced in price. We have sifted through the noise and highlighted those select few that might be worth your attention.

Game Debuts

The Dark Meadow ($5.99)
The Dark Meadow initially garnered a lot of attention for its impressive visuals. But after having spent several hours with the game, we feel confident that it will be remembered for its innovative and polished story telling. IGN's full review will be up later today.


HighFlyer DeathDefyer ($4.99)
HighFlyer is an entire game built on one powerful idea: falling through the sky is fun! The game has a rich back story, but we have wrestled a bit with the controls in our early play sessions.


Anthill: Tactical Trail Defense ($1.99)
Anthill is a nifty combination of base defense and line drawing, with a clever ant theme.


Role in the Hole ($0.99)
Tilt your iDevice to get PoPo the roly poly panda through each of the game's 72 stages.


Frogger Pinball ($1.99)
Frogger joins Mario, Kirby, Sonic and Samus in the annals of video game characters that have received their own pinball game.

Drawn: Dark Flight HD ($6.99)
Big Fish Games' beautiful sequel to Drawn: The Painted Tower is finally available.
